(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith)
1
Far away in the depths of my spirit tonight
Rolls a melody sweeter than psalm;
In celestial-like strains it unceasingly falls
O’er my soul like an infinite calm.
CHORUS
Peace! peace! wonderful peace,
Coming down from the Father above,
Sweep over my spirit forever, I pray,
In fathomless billows of love.
2
What a treasure I have in this wonderful peace
Buried deep in the heart of my soul,
So secure that no power can mine it away
While the years of eternity roll.
CHORUS
3
I am resting tonight in this wonderful peace,
Resting sweetly in Jesus’ control,
For I’m kept from all danger by night and by day,
And His glory is flooding my soul.
CHORUS
4
And me-thinks when I rise to that city of peace
Where the Author of peace I shall see,
That one strain of the song which the ransomed will sing
In that heavenly kingdom shall be:
CHORUS
5
Ah! soul, are you here without comfort and rest,
Marching down the rough pathway of time?
Make Jesus, your friend ere the shadows grow dark —
O accept this sweet pace so sublime!
CHORUS
At The Rainbow
